In-Mould Labelling is a highly advanced decoration process for plastics, in which the prefabricated plastic label is positioned directly into the mould by a special handling robot. The label may be printed on the reel or sheet and then die-cut to suit the product and stacked. The result is a decorated end product completed in a single process – with no need for subsequent labelling or printing.

Process

The prefabricated plastic label is deposited in the robot by a special handling device.

The label is precisely positioned in the mould electrostatically or by applying vacuum, just before the injection process.

The product and its decoration are completed in a single process. There is a total bond between the label and the product.

Benefits of IML

High quality for the photorealistic reproduction of high-resolution images, small type size, barcodes
